WoW Gold Facts

Here’s the darker side of Patch 3.2’s effect on the population:

So soft-hearted EGF was in Orgrimmar getting his stuff enchanted when he saw a Level 21 toon being bullied by a bunch of Level 80 ass clowns in Trade Chat. The lowbie was begging for a couple more pieces of gold to pay for his Apprentice riding training. The highbies were telling him to "work his ass off" like everyone else. Lowbie offered to sell some of his stuff.  Highbies told him "wtf would an 80 do with wool cloth?"

"Shove it up your rectum," I wanted to say, but I held back and instead, whispered to the razzed lowbie that I’ll help pay for his training.

Warms the heart, eh?

It does, especially after seeing him do the /cheer and /charge thing after mounting his dire wolf for the very first time. Always feel good to see a happy member of the Horde. Maybe that would inspire him to stick around, level and eventually join us in raiding the other faction.

Well guess what?

A mere few minutes after he left two other players whispered to me asking if I could buy them mounts too! Turns out Mr. Lucky Lowbie told his pals about me and encouraged them to try their luck with me.

"Hey buy me a mount too," said one of the artless, brazen little moochers.

"Go work your ass off for your mount," I said, and promptly put them on ignore.

Oli and Trev , you are not alone.

So there you have it — rampant cyberbegging because every Level 20 (and above) toon wants their damn mount. As of this writing, Cletus is having a field day in Silvermoon City, agreeing to every lovely lady toon’s request to buy them mounts, in exchange for cybersexual favors. Let’s hope those are real women behind those Blood Elves.

I know someone (not personally, though) who doesn’t need to work his ass off to buy any mount he wants — that guy who won the Name the Twitter Pig contest. Chris - that’s his name - won the 500K WoW gold grand prize, to be distributed to his one gazillion alts. To protect his privacy, WoW Gold Pig won’t divulge his complete name, his toon names and his realm. But I bet my middle finger that a lot of players are now sniffing for clues as to his identity — and probably even praying that he’s on their realm….so they can BEG from him. Sounds bad, I know, but after what I’ve experienced, it won’t surprise me if a hundred cyberbeggars in the game descend upon Chris like a hundred loony maniacs on Amanda Kreuger. After all, he’s got 500 effing K to spare, right?

Gentle warning to Chris: don’t be bullied into buying every Tom, Dick, Harry and Sally a mount or anything their heart desires, okay? Let’s not encourage people to be abusive moochers. Let them farm their own gold or join some contest that’s also giving away WoW gold.

Or hell, they can always buy.
